Lena Dunham’s Style: Does It Need Fixing?

January 16, 2013

HBO’s girlie-ensemble shows are great at giving sex symbol status to those who might not otherwise attain that. (Sex and the City, anyone?)

And on Girls, Lena Dunham is a refreshing new lady star–a natural looking, offbeat but cute gal who attracts the guys on the show, and who’s not afraid to roll around naked, even though she’s not stick-thin.

At the Golden Globes, she wore a chi-chi, purplish, winged Zac Posen dress of the type that a lot of skinny starlets would probably wear, as people balked, “She shouldn’t dress like them! She needs her own style!”

But why?

Why shouldn’t Lena have access to the same beautiful designer chic that everyone else gets? (And I loved it even more that her tattoos were showing.) Why would you want to put her in a potato sack? She’s cute!

I only had one problem–the shoes.

It took the woman so long to get to the stage that she practically had won for next season by time she got there.
